I manage and support all project managers at ScienceSoft to ensure that your projects are staffed, executed, and monitored with precision and accountability.
Project Management Director, ScienceSoft
Alex joined ScienceSoft in 2002 as a mobile software developer, back when neither Android nor iOS yet existed and flip phones dominated the market. Over the years, Alex steadily advanced, taking on larger technical and leadership responsibilities. In 2010, he was appointed Head of Mobile Development — a role that marked a significant turning point both for him and for ScienceSoft’s mobile strategy.
Under Alex’s leadership, the Mobile Development Department grew from 30 to 150 experts and successfully delivered over 400 projects. Alex supervised the development of mobile solutions for some of the world’s leading media and tech brands, including a cutting-edge camera app for a global leader in image processing and an IPTV app for a streaming service partnering with MTV and Fox Entertainment.
In 2025, Alex’s decades-long track record of guiding complex, high-stakes projects to success earned him the role of Project Management Director. Today, he oversees all project management efforts at ScienceSoft, supporting PM group leads and their teams so that they can deliver consistent, high-quality results across all project types. What makes Alex a valuable member of ScienceSoft’s leadership is not just his experience but the precision and discipline he brings to every layer of project execution.
Alex enforces consistent use of project management tools, methods, and processes across all projects. He works with group leads to allocate resources based on urgency, complexity, and business priorities. Together, they also manage workloads, prevent bottlenecks, and make sure our project managers have what they need to succeed — without being overwhelmed.
Alex audits delivery metrics across all project groups — guiding improvements for better outcomes and stepping in early to address potential quality or resource challenges before they affect outcomes. He also fosters a high-performance culture through mentoring, rotation, and ongoing development of project managers. His leadership translates directly into what ScienceSoft’s clients feel: fewer surprises, faster results, clearer communication, and the quiet confidence of knowing their project is in capable hands.
Our PMs don’t just coordinate developers. They eliminate chaos, remove uncertainty, and deliver results — even in challenging conditions. This is what sets true project management apart from mere administration.
